PHILADELPHIA - The Explorers enter this weekend in search of their first MAAC win of the season. They'll have four chances as they play two games on Saturday and two on Sunday in New Rochelle, New York.
The Explorers start the weekend against cross-town rival Villanova (4-11, 1-2 MAAC) on Saturday at 1:30 PM. The Wildcats finished with one win in three games in their MAAC opening weekend earlier this month. Their win came against St. Francis Brooklyn.
La Salle will take on Siena (3-14, 2-2 MAAC) on Saturday evening at 7:30 PM. Saints utility player Sophia Torress won Rookie of the Week honors for the second time this season earlier this week. She scored three goals and had four assists in two games last week.
The Explorers will begin day two against St. Francis Brooklyn (2-10, 0-4 MAAC) at noon. The Terriers' freshman Kelsey Snelgar was named MAAC Rookie of the Week three times this season. In five games last week, she scored 17 goals and had eight assists.
La Salle will wrap up the weekend with the host, Iona (5-18, 2-1 MAAC). The Gaels have defeated their last two opponents in VMI and Villanova.
